ABOUT THIS BOOK

Who can use this book? Tree or Three? is for beginner or elementary students who want to improve their English pronunciation. This book is for students working on their own, but teachers can also use many of the exercises in class. This symbol: means that an exercise is suitable for pairs. This symbol means that an exercise is suitable for a group of students..

What do I need? ^ You need a CD player. Every time you see this symbol: you have to listen to the CD.

You will also see a number. This tells you which track number to find on your CD player.

Intonation is shown with arrows:

It is also useful to have a small mirror. You can use the mirror to compare the shape of

your mouth with the mouth pictures in each unit.

Do I need to know any special vocabulary before I start? Here is a list of some important vocabulary that will help you use the book. Check the words

in a dictionary now and write a translattooth ..............................................................................

consonant ___

lips ...................

mirror ...............

nose ..................

pronunciation

sentence ...........

sound ...............

strong ................

teeth ..

throat .

tongue

voice..

vowel .

weak ..

What do I have to do? Each unit contains different exercises. Here is a list of some things you have to do: listen to words and sentences on the CD

repeat words or sentences that you hear on the CD

tick words or sentences that you hear on the CD

underline words or letters

circle words or letters

match words that have the same sound

decide if information is true or false

Where can I check my answers to exercises? For some exercises you will hear the answers on the CD after you speak.

For other exercises you will see this symbol: 8—»This means you have to check your answers

in the Key at the back of the book (see page 108-129).

Should I do all the units in the book? You can look through the book and do any units that you feel are important for you.

If you want to check your pronunciation, it is a good idea to do all the units in the order that they appear in the book.

INTRODUCTION FOR TEACHERS

Level This book is written for beginner-elementary students, but previous editions

have also been used by students at other levels. Ship or Sheep? is written for

intermediate level.

Class/Student working alone The instructions are written for a student working alone, but can be used for

classroom teaching as well. See the symbols in the section About this book,

especially andj^llft.

Minimal pairs In this book, these are pairs of words/sentences which differ by only one

sound, e.g. Have you got a pen?/Have you got a pan.?These sometimes help

students to hear - and then pronounce - sounds that are difficult for them.

You may want to extend students’ class practice of particular minimal pairs

by inventing games or playing the following:

• ‘Card games’ Make cards for all the minimal pairs in units 1-6. Shuffle the

cards and deal them face down all around the table. Turn over any two

cards and read the words aloud. If they aren’t minimal pairs turn them

face down again and the next person plays. Collect as many pairs as you

can in a time limit, e.g. ten minutes.

• ‘Fingers’ For each pair, say words rapidly at random, e.g. tree tree three

three tree three. Students show with one or two fingers if they hear sound 1

or sound 2. Students practise in pairs and then back to back.
